US Open 2025 Draw Revealed: Coco Gauff, Aryna Sabalenka, and Iga Swiatek learn their first-round fates

The anticipation is over as the US Open 2025 women’s singles main draw has officially been revealed, setting the stage for thrilling battles at Flushing Meadows. With heavyweights like Aryna Sabalenka, Coco Gauff, and Iga Swiatek leading the charge, fans can expect blockbuster action right from the first round.

Aryna Sabalenka aims to cement her no.1 status

Current world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka enters the tournament as the top seed after a commanding hard-court season. Known for her powerful baseline game and relentless aggression, Sabalenka will kick off her campaign against Switzerland’s Rebeka Masarova.

The Belarusian has been consistent throughout 2025 and will be eager to prove that she can dominate on the New York hard courts. Her section of the draw includes rising stars like Leylah Fernandez and established names such as Elena Rybakina, promising some early fireworks.

Iga Swiatek eyes second US Open crown

Iga Swiatek will look to extend her dominance despite slipping to world No. 2. Swiatek opens her title defense against Emiliana Arango of Colombia, a clash where the Pole’s shot-making and composure will be tested.

Although her hard-court preparation was mixed, Swiatek’s history at Flushing Meadows proves that she thrives under pressure. A potential run-in with Elina Svitolina and Naomi Osaka in later rounds makes her road to a fifth US Open crown anything but straightforward.

Gauff leads American charge

The crowd favorite, Coco Gauff, has drawn a blockbuster opening round against Ajla Tomljanovic. Fresh off an impressive run to the Cincinnati Open final, the 21-year-old American carries huge expectations as she bids to repeat her Grand Slam success on home soil.

Gauff’s path to glory will not be easy, with potential encounters against Madison Keys and Jessica Pegula in her section. But with her athleticism and newfound composure, she has every chance of igniting the Arthur Ashe Stadium crowd once again.
